Subject: Re: Exploits


Two things.
First, you will never have a project of this magnitude without having some bugs
making it to release undiscovered. Software is inherently buggy, its a fact of
life, get used to it, you will see it happen more and more.
Second, they have stated that people found exploiting a bug will be warned. If they
continue to exploit the bug, then they will be punished. Its painfully obvious why
they don't list bugs. They don't want to be forced into policing them 24/7. If you
stumble onto something that is a blatent bug, report it so that it gets fixed, and
move on. If you find something that could go either way, enjoy it until a GM/Guide
tells you to stop.
